No, I sent you that letter
                                    A
To ask you if the end was worth the means
Was there really no inbetween?
D
And I still don't feel better
                                    A
I just wondered if it could be like before
And I think you just made me sure!
                          D
But then that's typically you
And I might have been a bit rude
                    A
But I wrote it in a bad mood
                         D
I'm not being funny with you
But it's hard to be engaging
                              A
When the things you love keep changing

  I just decided I don't trust you anymore
D                        G
  I just decided I don't trust you anymore

D
First time you came over                      
                                               A
Do you remember you saying that you'd stay for good?
No I didn't think you would
D
Well we couldn't've been closer  
                                                 A
But it was different then, and that's all in the past
There I've said it now at last!
D
You grew up quicker than me
I kept so many old things
                        A
And never quite stopped hoping
I think I know what this means
D
  It means I've got to grow up
                      A
 it means you want to throw up

I just know, you weren't listening, were you?
D                            G
Oh please go, whenever you'd prefer to
                  F#m                    Em
I said it means a lot, when you use an old phrase
                  F#m               Em
But then so what? We cant have it both ways
  D                          G
I know, you're not bothered, are you?
     D                    G
Even so, I'm not going to argue
        F#m                  Em
He wont object! Keep writing to me
           F#m             Em
Just don't forget you ever knew me
